A big thank you to Tony and Mandy for allowing us to stay at Villa Ellie, and also for the basket of goodies, the villa is well equipped with very comfy beds which I feel is a big plus,and the views over Elounda are just amazing.Only a five minutes drive to the village which has so many good restaurants, with a supermarket, and a visit to Plaka is recommended which is a pretty little fishing village which has many good places to eat, and only ten minutes away. thank you once again for a great holiday, we will be back.

The information we were sent before arriving looked too good to be true! However when we arrived at the Villa it was clear that everything was in fact even better, if possible, than the information we had been given.

Right from the start when Mandy and Tony met us in the early hours of the morning at stupid o'clock, and didn't rush explaining the layout of the villa and how everything worked plus the very welcome "welcome pack" which removed any immediate need to worry about shopping first thing the next day. This set us up for what was to remain as a thoroughly relaxing 2 week stay for us all and well suiting all ages from late sixties to 18 months.

The property has everything anyone could want with excellent rooms, first class pool and all the facilities you could hope for. This together with Mandy and Tony being so helpful and available to help with advice when needed and the unsurpassed location with the wonderful views made this by far the best villa holiday we have ever experienced.

We all look forward to the day we will be able to return to what can only be described as paradise.

Thank you so much Mandy and Tony from John and Jill (grandparents), James, Dave, Phil, Josh and Katie (sons and daughter-in-law) plus grandson Joel. xxxxxxx

This is an ideal property for those who want luxury, views to die for and a quiet location. Situated well above the small port of Elounda and in easy reach of beaches, bars and airport. Mandy & Tony provided all we needed and were on hand to answer all our questions. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property to families and groups of adults and will certainly be returning.

There were 5 of us and we enjoyed barbequeing and eating outside. The pool was great fun at the end of a day at the beach. Views were spectacular. House is very private.

Villa Ellie in Elounda was by far the best place we have stayed .From

the greeting we received from Mandy and Tony to the beautiful villa

which had everything you could possibly want.The photos of the villa are

exactly what you get and more.The only down side was you need to stay

longer just to appreciate it.
